Description
(+)-Limonene is a ROTICHROM® GC reference substance intended for gas-chromatography applications in analytical laboratories. The monoterpene has the empirical formula C₁₀H₁₆, CAS number 5989-27-5, and EG nr. 227-813-5, with a molar mass of 136,24 g/mol. Physical data include a density of 0,84 g/cm³, a flash point of 51 °C, and a boiling range of 175 to 178 °C, supporting method setup and peak identification work. Supplied as 100 mg in glass, the small pack size suits calibration, system suitability checks, and qualitative comparison in GC workflows without committing large reagent volumes. This material from manufacturer Carl ROTH belongs to the ROTICHROM® GC line of reference substances used in chromatography suites for flavour, fragrance, natural-product, and organic-analysis contexts. Accurate CAS and formula information aids LIMS registration and documentation, while the defined physicochemical profile helps analysts verify retention behaviour under chosen column and temperature conditions. The glass primary packaging protects the neat liquid standard during storage and handling on the analytical bench.
